The Dress of the Year is an annual fashion award run by the Fashion Museum, Bath from 1963. Each year since 1963, the Museum has asked a fashion journalist to select a dress or outfit that best represents the most important new ideas in contemporary fashion.[1] For 2010 the Museum broke with tradition by asking the millinerStephen Jones, rather than a journalist, to choose an outfit;[2] and again in 2014 when the fashion blogger, Susanna Lau of Style Bubble, was asked to choose an outfit for 2013.[3] The outfit is then donated to the Fashion Museum along with an Adel Rootsteinmannequin to represent that year's total look.[1]
